About Habitat Funzjoni Primarja: Blokka tal-Ġugarelli Edukattiva
Test tal-Ktieb: Habitat huwa sett ta' blokok edukattivi tal-ġugarelli maħsuba għat-tfal tal-iskola tal-ħsieb. Il-blokok juru kif it-tibdil fil-klima jagħmel ħsara lill-ekosistemi u jinkoraġġixxu kuxjenza bikrija dwar il-protezzjoni ekoloġika. Huma inklużi żewġ ambjenti: glaċier li qed idub u foresta li tneħħiet minn siġarha. It-tfal isibu l-problemi, jibnu mill-ġdid l-ambjent u jerġgħu jġibu l-annimali fil-ħabitats tagħhom. Il-blokok huma magħmula mill-qoxra tas-sufra, għalhekk l-ebda siġra ma tinqata' għall-produzzjoni. Is-sufra hija antistatika u tirreżisti t-trab. Il-gradjenti tal-forma u l-kulur jippermettu tqassim miftuħ u kreattiv.

- Unique Properties
- Habitat, the toy bricks was designated to convey the concept of climate change cause damage to ecosystem and inspire children's awareness of ecological protection and to educate preschool children about climate action. Made of Spanish cork bark material which is no trees were chop down for the sake of production, is antistatic that avoid dust adhere, prevent children from asthma and allergies. Made up of gradients of shape and colors, open-ended stackable toy brick in natural habitat scenario.

- Production Technology
- Material: Cork wood, paper. Production: laser cutting, flat output, manual coloring. Surface treatment: Use latex paint to color, retain the cork surface texture.
- Design Challenge
- Because cork wood is made up of broken pieces, it will be uneven and need to be re-finished by hand, and because of the small size of the cork, the final size can be easily broken.
- Research
- Research Type: Team Teaching - Science, Art, Mathematics
Objective: To learn and understand the effects of climate change and the habits of daily life
Methods:To collect the causes, effects, mitigation and adaptation measures of climate change.Based on the analysis of commercial toys, this paper classifies the suitable play methods for children's age development, and analyzes the quality of toys, aiming at sustainable materials.A questionnaire was designed to investigate the environmental problems and improve the environment of children by interviewing with teachers.
Data collection: climate change-related data analysis, 3-6 years old teaching toy market analysis, mass lifestyle analysis, early childhood teachers' opinions analysis.
Research tools: Rhinoceros 3D, Solidworks, Adobe Illustrator, procreate. - Inspiration
- According to the United Nation called for Sustainable Development Goals, two climate change issues namely the melting of arctic glaciers and over-deforestation of the Amazon rainforest, it brings out the seriousness of ecological damage cause by human, eventually global temperature rise, starvation, extinction of species. Let children learn and understand the effects of climate change to daily life, to develop their environmental concerns and habits from an early age education see its urgency.
- Project Duration
- The project began in August 2022 and was completed in Tainan, Taiwan in March 2023.
- Operation Flow
- The children were asked to find out the problems and make ecological restoration. After assembling and constructing the environmental components, the animals could be put back into their ecological state. Through conceptual guidance and practical implementation, children can remember more deeply.
